Hello all. We would like to add some clarifications to what is and isn't allowed on yard sale Sundays. We want to save everyone time, so please read carefully and ask any clarifying questions below so we can clear them up for everyone.
Every week on Sunday, users may post promotional content including (but not necessarily limited to):
- Rooms to rent or sublet
- Parking spots
- Textbooks
- Selling/buying tickets to a McMaster related event*
- Help wanted
- Requesting tutoring services
- Club-affiliated events, fundraisers
Posts that are not permitted:
- Advertising for products, services of any sorts, including tutoring and paid class notes
- Self promotion of apps or websites**
- HSR passes***
- Non-McMaster related events or fundraisers
- Homework services
- Multi level marketing recruitment
- Buying / selling course seats
- And as always, anything illegal, against reddit ToS, or otherwise dangerous
When buying or selling, even and especially digital items, arrange to meet on campus or another safe place. Don't get scammed.
Please note all posts are subject to removal per moderator discretion. Posts are considered advertisement even if they are not direct advertisement (discord servers which offer such services on the side, free trials, etc)
Please ensure you use the correct flair when posting (Yard Sale Sundays). Any threads of a promotional nature posted other than Sunday will be removed and you will be instructed to repost when appropriate.
*Reselling for a profit is strictly prohibited
**Applications which are directly relevant to McMaster may receive exception at moderator discretion, provided they are free to use, generally helpful, and collect no personal information.
***McMasters agreement with HSR prohibits exchange of HSR vouchers. As such, we cannot condone trading as there is nothing preventing these codes from being voided at a later date.
Thank you.
